Dillon Accuses Israel Lobby of Pushing Trump Into Iran War
Joe Rogan Experience
#2518 - Tim Dillon
"There was tremendous pressure on him to do this. And it hasn't worked. And it's clearly not in the interest of the United States to be in a Middle Eastern war with Iran."
Tim Dillon argued that powerful pro-Israel donors and ideological groups pressured Trump into military action against Iran despite it contradicting his campaign promises to avoid Middle Eastern wars. He suggested figures like Barry Weiss and Mark Levin are ideologically committed to Israeli interests over American ones, and that the administration is now at odds with Israel for the first time as Trump realizes the war threatens his legacy.
